Ron's Test Level

Ron's Test Level is a short level that can be accessed using the level select (see above). The level uses a debug tileset that is otherwise not used anywhere else in the game, and uses the background from the first level of Vectorman. Strangely, Vectorman is in tank form for this level. The bottomless pits are inescapable, but the level can be exited by entering the level select code again, or by touching the EXIT arrows on the right of the level.

Intro screens

Two screens, which display "AND" and "Present", can be accessed via the level select. These were meant to be displayed between the Sega and BlueSky Software logos and the title screen, and were originally used in prototypes.
